Memento Mori Lyrics

this will die out.
Narrative: Fear. a fever is dancing in stride with our metronome memory
hypocrisy here. painting a portrait that's dripping with crass composition
fumbled trust, the father is dead. cathedrals are burning
lies fuel fires, fear burns red, now i'm cold. i burn better in the morning.
Heartlessness. Narratives. Christ, where've you gone?
Impassioned. Abandoned. Why, you were wrong.
Narrative fear. a fever is dancing inside. Metronome memory.
hypocrisy here. painting a portrait that's screaming "the silence of dying."
fumbled trust, the children are dead. cathedrals are burning.
lies fuel fires. fear burns red and i'm cold. i burn better in the morning.
Heartlessness. Narratives. Christ, where've you gone?
Impassioned. Abandoned. Why, you were wrong.
this will die out.
there is no narrative, no saving plot.
we've forgotten how to read. we've forgotten how to believe.
the text has gone dark. the author receeds.

this is such a great song D: wonder why no one has commented on it. The only thing I know is that Memento Mori is a latin phrase that means "Remember you are mortal" :/ or something along the lines of that

"Remember that you will die" actually. But close.

This song is amazing.... I dont have a clue as to the meaning yet, but I still love the song. The beginning of it sounds like that Foo Fighters song, Hero. lol But yeah. Amazing song by an amazing band.

So... where does this song come from anyway?

great song but It really needs explaining. I think it is about a church literaly burning, or a reference to it. Perhaps religion is fading or something, and then he calls out for the only one that can help: "Christ, where've you gone?"

Its just my point of view...

where is this song from???

Cover art for Memento Mori lyrics by Academy Is..., The

OK, as far as I can gather, it was from The Academy (before they changed to Is...)'s first demo, it came with a demo of Dear Interceptor.

"we've forgotten how to read. we've forgotten how to believe."

Is this religious? As in no one believes in God anymore, or just generally?

This song is amazing, I love it as much as any of their other stuff.
